Thanks Gagan for the update, but still if you could update me with a model plan .. since i intend to use my holidays in the last week of December solely for this purpose. This will be handy & will save lots of my time for planning.

Also would like to know if you have any plans or website links which can guide on making cycling tours preperation, since that will be handy if i have to make one in the month of Dec 2011 on my own.
